Tim Maw
In September 2024, a British/Nepali team will attempt to summit a peak in the Dhaulagiri range of the Himalayas and break the world record for the highest altitude bike ride. The expedition is being led by Neil Laughton and this will be the fourth time that Tim joins Neil for a major expedition.
Neil already holds four Guiness World Records, including the Highest Dinner Party at 7056m on Mt Everest in April 2018 and three Penny Farthing cycling records.
The bid is to summit the 95th highest mountain in the world and push the cycling record to 7246m.
This extreme challenge will draw attention to the more serious side of the expedition, to procure and install Starlink internet to the Tenzing Norgay School in the remote village of Kakgkot, link up their computers and provide IT training to the Head Teacher and Staff. This is one of the highest altitude schools in the world and yet it has no insulation and no glazing so the expedition hopes to improve the working conditions for pupils if funds allow. Please me to learn how you or your business could get involved and benefit from this extraordinary project.
